Project DescriptionWhen Barajas Airport Terminal 4 building was
opened in 2006 it effectively doubled the aircraft and passenger
capacity at Spain’s largest international airport. Not only was
there another major terminal building (two actually as there’s also
a smaller satellite terminal building, T4S), but another two
runways were added. Now aircrafts take off and land during the day
at an average rate of one every 30 seconds. Terminal 4 ranks as one
of the world’s largest airport terminals, measured by building
area. The airport as a whole is the 4th largest in Europe, and the
10th largest in the world.
Project RequirementsElastic sealing solutions was needed for
50.000 linear meters of joints in the marble tiled floor in the
Passenger Terminal Complex.
